As the winter nights are drawing in, we would like to remind Nottinghamshire residents to think about home security during the late afternoon and evenings.
We’re aiming to prevent a rise in burglaries during the darker autumn and winter months by reminding residents to take some simple steps to make it as difficult as possible for burglars.
We’re also urging all road users and pedestrians to stay safe and been seen, with the longer hours of darkness and the winter weather, and check their vehicles are fit for the winter.
Some simple crime prevention tips for your home include:
If you see somebody acting suspiciously report it to the police immediately by calling 101 or, in an emergency, call 999.

Halloween
If you are celebrating Halloween this year, we hope you have a spook-tacular time, but stay safe. Please be mindful and respectful that not everyone in our community will be taking part.
If you don’t want trick or treaters at your door this Halloween, ‘Say No to Trick or Treaters’ posters are available for you to download and display. The poster should be displayed in a prominent position either on the front door or front window.
